Abstract

This qualitative study used a series of focus groups to examine the experiences of African American female adult learners in higher education ( N = 10). This article highlights three categories that emerged: the motivations, challenges, and sources of strength the participants experienced as they worked toward their academic goals. The findings are important to professionals working with African American women in academic settings and for those who want to enhance their current understanding of the lives of African American women.
